Can I wear these for intense workouts?

Do the pockets have zippers?

What does 'French Terry' mean for the fabric?

French Terry fabric is a loop-backed knit fabric. It's soft on the inside with a smooth, jersey-like outer surface, offering comfort and absorbency without being excessively heavy.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too loose

Adjust the drawcord to tighten the waistband for a more secure fit. If the overall fit is too baggy, consider a smaller size in the future.

Fabric pilling after washing

Wash inside out in cold water and avoid high heat drying. Use a fabric shaver if minor pilling occurs.

Drawcord comes out of the waistband

Carefully re-insert the drawcord using a safety pin or a specialised tool. Ensure it's threaded through the waistband evenly.
